Published: August 2020

Easy operation, readily accessible starting materials, and short syntheses of the privileged scaffold indeno[1,2-]isoquinolinone were achieved by an multicomponent reaction (MCR)-based protocol via an ammonia-Ugi-four component reaction (4CR)/copper-catalyzed annulation sequence. The optimization and scope and limitations of this short and general sequence are described. The methodology allows an efficient construction of a wide variety of indenoisoquinolinones in just two steps.

Complexity-generating reactions that access three-dimensional products from simple starting materials offer substantial value for drug discovery. While oxygen-containing heterocycles frequently feature unique, nonaromatic architectures such as spirocyclic rings, exploration of these chemical spaces is limited by conventional synthetic approaches. Herein, we report a copper-catalyzed annulation and alkene transposition cascade reaction that enables a modular preparation of complex, spirocyclic ethers from readily available alkenol substrates via a copper-catalyzed annulation and transannular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer-mediated C-H functionalization.

A novel and efficient modular synthesis of -difluorotetrahydrocarbazolone scaffolds via copper-catalyzed radical cascade cyclization of bromodifluoroacetyl indoles and olefins has been reported. This operationally simple protocol provides straightforward and practical access to a series of privileged -difluorotetrahydrocarbazolone scaffolds from readily available starting materials, with the feature of broad functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions. Moreover, the method could be used for the late-stage functionalization of bioactive molecules, which opens up the possibility for practical applications.

Enantioconvergent Cross-Nucleophile Coupling: Copper-Catalyzed Deborylative Cyanation.

Organoboron compounds are widely utilized in organic synthesis for their diverse reactivity, modular preparation, and stability compared to other classes of organometallic reagents. While organoboron species are commonly employed as nucleophiles in cross-coupling reactions, their potential as racemic building blocks in enantioconvergent transformations remains largely untapped. Herein, we demonstrate the direct utilization of alkylboronic pinacol esters in intermolecular enantioconvergent transformations.

Modular Synthesis of Tripeptide Analogs with an Aminobitriazole Skeleton Using Diynyl Benziodoxolone as a Trivalent Platform.

J Org Chem

August 2024

Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Synthetic Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Science, Gifu Pharmaceutical University, 1-25-4 Daigaku-nishi, Gifu 501-1196, Japan.

A new synthesis method of tripeptide analogs with an aminobitriazole skeleton was proposed. The method involves assembling three amino acid-derived modules at the amino group site and onto a triisopropylsilyl diynyl benziodoxolone by copper-catalyzed electrophilic diynylation of amino acid-derived sulfonamides, chemoselective azide-alkyne cycloadditions with amino acid-derived azides, and deprotection. Various complex aminobitriazoles substituted with pyrene, nucleoside, and -acetylglucosamine were also synthesized.
